    I tried this with Sainsbury's shredded cabbage and leeks, which I cooked in the microwave, and just wrapped the fish loosely in foil and cooked in the oven at 190C for 6 minutes. It was a great success!

    Did this all in the steamer and it was a hit with the family, lovely fresh flavours and incredibly healthy.

    Delicious! Lovely, quick med week meal. Chillis just add a kick, not hot as long as you take the seeks out.
